Use a network (LAN) cable to connect the C150BRS4 to your broadband modem.

The WAN LED on the front of the C150BRS4 will lit up.

If the WAN LED on the front does not lit up, make sure that:

- The C150BRS4 is powered on (the power LED should burn).

- The broadband modem is turned on.

- The network (LAN) cable between both devices is connected correctly.

Connect the network (LAN) cable to 1 of the 4 LAN ports on the back panel of the C150BRS4 and to the

network card of your computer.

The LAN LED of the used LAN port will lit up, indicating that the computer is connected. (Your computer

must be switched on and the LAN connection must be enabled).

4. Configuring the computer

4.1 Configuring the IP address

The C150BRS4 is equipped with a built-in DHCP server. The DHCP server will automatically assign an IP

address to each connected computer if the connected computer is configured to automatically obtain an

Most computers are by default configured to automatically obtain an IP address. Should this not be the

case, you will need to configure your computer to obtain an IP address automatically by following the

4.2 Checking the connection

With the ‘Command Prompt’ of Windows you can verify if you have received a correct IP address on your

Local Area Connection or Wireless Network Connection. This example is based on Windows 7 and Vista

with Service Pack 1. Windows 7 and Vista need administrative rights to perform the steps below, which

are explained in the following steps.

A. Click on ‘Start’, ‘All Programs’, ‘Accessories’, right click on ‘Command Prompt’ and select ‘Run as

You might get a warning message, which you will need to accept by clicking ‘Continue’ or ‘Yes’.

The Command Prompt window will appear. Make sure the ‘Command Prompt’ title bar mentions

“Administrator: Command Prompt”. When “Administrator” is not mentioned, you do not have the

necessary administrative rights for these steps and you will need to perform step A again.

B. Enter the command ‘IPCONFIG’ and press ‘ENTER’ on your keyboard.

You should see the following information:

IPv4 Address : 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx can vary between 100 ~ 199).

Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway : 192.168.0.1

If the information above matches your configuration you can continue configuring the router in chapter 5.

If the information shown above does not match your configuration (i.e. your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx)

you will need to take the following steps: BENGLISH

1. Disconnect and reconnect the power of the router.

2. Disconnect and reconnect the network cable to the router and to your computer.

3. Renew the IP address of your computer with the following commands:

- ‘IPCONFIG /RELEASE’ : this will release the incorrect IP address

- ‘IPCONFIG /RENEW’ : this will renew the IP address

If above steps do not solve the IP address issue, you can reset the device to the factory default settings

with the reset button on the back of the device.

Press and hold the reset button until the power LED starts to flash (about 10 seconds). This will reboot the

router and load the factory default settings into the router. When the power LED burns steady again,

repeat step B to renew the IP address.

Note: If the problem remains, check if all cables are connected in the correct way. The WAN port

should be connected to the modem and the LAN port to the computer. Connecting them in the

wrong way will also result in an incorrect IP address.

5. Configuring the C150BRS4

This chapter describes how to configure the C150BRS4 using the built-in setup wizard. After completing

the steps in this chapter your router has been set up for its primary functions.

6.3 Connecting automatically using WPS The Conceptronic C150BRS4 supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). WPS is a standard for easy and secure

establishment of a wireless network. With WPS you can setup and protect your wireless network in just a

To use WPS with the C150BRS4, you need to have a wireless client that supports WPS. If you have

one or more wireless clients without WPS support, it is advised to manually connect to the

C150BRS4 using the preconfigured WPA key as mentioned on the bottom. Refer to chapter 6.1 or

6.2 on how to manually connect to the wireless network.

For more (technical) information about WPS, refer to the following website:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Setup

The C150BRS4 supports two ways of activating and establishing a WPS connection:

- Push Button technology

- PIN Code technology

WPS – Push Button technology

The WPS Push Button technology requires a (virtual) button on the wireless client to establish a

connection between the C150BRS4 and the wireless client.

Some wireless clients use an actual button for activating the WPS Push Button technology; other wireless

clients use a virtual button in their software.

Follow the steps below to activate and establish a WPS connection with the Push Button technology:

A. Press the WPS button on the back of the C150BRS4, the WLAN/WPS LED will burn steady indicating

that WPS authentication has started.

B. Press the WPS button on the wireless client. This can be either a hardware button or a virtual button

in the software of the wireless client.

The C150BRS4 will keep the WPS authentication active for 120 seconds. During this process, the

WLAN/WPS LED will burn steady. If there is no WPS connection established within 120 seconds,

the LED will return to its original state and WPS authentication will be stopped.

If the WPS authentication is successful, the WLAN/WPS LED will return to its original state.

The wireless client is now connected to the secured wireless network of the C150BRS4.

You can add more wireless clients without losing the connection to previously connected wireless clients.

If you want to add more wireless clients, you will need to repeat step A and B.ENGLISH

WPS – PIN Code technology

If your wireless client supports WPS but does not have a (virtual) Push button, you can use the PIN Code

technology to establish a WPS connection.

To activate the WPS PIN Code function, you need a computer with a wired connection to the

A. Login to the web interface as explained in chapter 5.1.

B. First select ‘General Setup’, then ‘Wireless’ and finally ‘WPS’.

The WPS configuration page will be shown.

In the WPS configuration page, you can trigger the virtual ‘Push Button’ or the ‘PIN Code’ authentication.

The ‘PIN Code’ authentication can be initiated in 2 different ways:

1. The wireless client will provide the PIN code, which will be entered in the router.

In this situation, the wireless client will be the ‘Enrollee’ and the router will be the ‘Registrar’.

A. Start the wireless client and search for the provided PIN code, like shown in below example:ENGLISH

B. Make sure the “Config Mode” at the WPS configuration page is set to ‘Registrar’.

C. Enter the PIN Code given by your wireless client in the “Enter Client PIN Code” field.

D. Click the ‘Start PIN’ button.

The C150BRS4 will keep the WPS authentication for incoming connections with the given PIN code

active for 120 seconds.

E. Initiate the PIN code connection on your wireless client.

Your wireless client will now connect to the secured wireless network of the C150BRS4. When the

connection is established, the C150BRS4 will stop the WPS authentication check and the WPS Status

in the WPS configuration page will be set to “Configured”.

If you want to add more Wireless Clients with the WPS feature, repeat steps A to E.

2. The router will provide the PIN code, which will be entered in the wireless client.

In this situation, the router will be the ‘Enrollee’ and the wireless client will be the ‘Registrar’.

A. Set the option “Config Mode” in the WPS configuration page to ‘Enrollee’ and write down the

PIN code mentioned at the section “PIN Code”.

B. Click the ‘Start PIN’ button.

The C150BRS4 will keep the WPS authentication for incoming connections with the generated PIN

code active for 120 seconds.

C. Enter the PIN code provided by the C150BRS4 in your wireless client software, set the wireless

client software to ‘Registrar’ and initiate the PIN code connection.

Your wireless client will now connect to the secured wireless network of the C150BRS4. When the

connection is established, the C150BRS4 will stop the WPS authentication check and the WPS Status

in the WPS configuration page will be set to “Configured”.

If you want to add more Wireless Clients with the WPS feature, repeat steps A to C.ENGLISH

The Conceptronic C150BRS4 is equipped with a built-in firewall to prevent attacks from the internet on

your network. This firewall automatically blocks all incoming traffic on unused ports. When a blocked port

is needed for a service or application (for example: a FTP or Web server) you can create a Virtual Server

Rule in the configuration pages to forward the traffic.

The C150BRS4 also supports UPnP port mapping, allowing local UPnP applications to automatically add

port mappings to the router’s configuration. This means that if you are using an UPnP capable application

there is no need to manually create a Virtual Server rule in the C150BRS4 for that application.

In the situation that UPnP is not available or a Virtual Server rule needs to be added for any other reason,

it is advised to configure the computer(s) and/or network device(s) with a fixed IP address instead of a

Below you will find a list of some common used ports and their corresponding application:

20 FTP data (FTP server) 80 HTTP (Web server)

22 SSH (Secure shell) 2000 Remotely Anywhere

25 SMTP (Mail server – outgoing) 5900 VNC For more ports and their corresponding applications, see http://portforward.com/cports.htm

For detailed information about the virtual server and DMZ options, refer to the user manual

(English only) on the product CD-ROM. Select “View User Manual” from the autorun menu.

A. Login to the web interface as explained in chapter 5.1.

B. Select ‘General Setup’, ‘NAT’ and ‘Virtual Server’ to open the virtual server configuration page.

C. Enable the virtual server by ticking the checkbox in front of ‘Enable Virtual Server’.

D. Enter the information needed for the virtual server rule in the following fields:

- Private IP : Enter the local IP address of the computer/device.

- Private Port : Enter the desired local port for the computer/device.

- Type : Select the type of type of network traffic that should be passed through.

- Public Port : Enter the port which must be visible on the outside of your internet connection.

- Comment : Optionally you can add a name to easily recognize the virtual server rule.

Note: When the computer/device is connected to the router you can also select its name from the

drop down list under ‘Computer Name’ and press the ‘<<’ button to automatically add its

In the picture below you will see an example of a virtual server configuration.

If you do not know which protocol (‘Type’) you need to select for your virtual server rule, select

‘Both’. This option will pass both TCP and UDP traffic through to the configured IP address.

F. When you are finished adding virtual server rules, click on the ‘APPLY’ button to save the settings.

On the next page, click on ‘APPLY’ again to restart the router.

After the router has been restarted, all settings are taken into affect and the virtual server rules will be

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may

be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work,

and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a

work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another

language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The

act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a

work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on

what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided

that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;

keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of

the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and

copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the

Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for

such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright

notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute

the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program

itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to

print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the

Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,

do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as

part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License,

whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the

intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the

Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form

under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the

terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,LICENSING INFORMATION

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than

your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code,

to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This

alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or

executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work,

complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files,

plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source

code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major

components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component

itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering

equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third

parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any

attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your

rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have

their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission

to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this

License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your

acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a

license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may

not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for

enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to

patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the

conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to

satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you

may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the

Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and

this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section

is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances. It is not the purpose of this

section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this

section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by

public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through

that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing

to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted

interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical

distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus

excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.LICENSING INFORMATION

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time.

Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which

applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of

any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this

License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different,

write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the

Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of

preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software

EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve

this is to make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most

effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where

the full notice is found.

Ty Coon, President of Vice

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a

subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is

what you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this License.LICENSING INFORMATION

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February 1999

Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License,

version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the

software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software packages--typically libraries-

-of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think

carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular

case, based on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed

to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that

you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of

it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to

surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library

or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights

that we gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the

library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making

changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives

you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the

library is modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the original

version, so that the original author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a

company cannot effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.

Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of

use specified in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General

Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally

speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such

linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax

criteria for linking other code with the library.LICENSING INFORMATION

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the

ordinary General Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-

free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries.

However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so

that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more

frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain

by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a

large body of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more

people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a

program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference

between a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived from the

library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the

copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License

(also called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".

A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application

programs (which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A "work

based on the Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing

the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another

language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)

"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete

source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the

scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope.

The act of running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its

contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether

that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source code as you receive it, in any medium,

provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of

warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of

this License along with the Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in

exchange for a fee.LICENSING INFORMATION

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and

copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these

a) The modified work must itself be a software library.

b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any

c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that

uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort

to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or

table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.

(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of

the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function

must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the

Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,

do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as

part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License,

whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the

intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the

Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of

the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General

Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License

applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable

form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-

readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used

for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access

to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third

parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.LICENSING INFORMATION

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being

compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the

Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library

(because it contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable is therefore covered

by this License.Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the

work may be a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially

significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is

not precisely defined by law.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small

inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally

a derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms of

Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to

produce a work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the

terms permit modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use

are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright

notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the

copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:

a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including

whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an

executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code

and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable containing

the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not

necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)

b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run

time a copy of the library already present on the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the

executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the

modified version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.

c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials

specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.

d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy

the above specified materials from the same place.

e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must include any data and utility programs

needed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not

include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,

and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies

the executable.LICENSING INFORMATION

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally

accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an

executable that you distribute.

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other

library facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution

of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these

a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other

library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.

b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and

explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this

License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will

automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you

under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission

to modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this

License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your

acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library or

10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a

license from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions.

You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible

for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.

11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to

patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the

conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to

satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you

may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the

Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and

this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section

is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity

of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system

which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of

software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to

decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted

interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical

distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus

excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.LICENSING INFORMATION

13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time

to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies

to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later

version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may

choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible

with these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,

write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two

goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software
